Lettuce Wrapped Bison Burgers

We love Bison for it's lean qualities and flavor, and burgers were are go to staple for at least 2 meals a week...only before our lifestyle change we were eating them from Carl's Junior's drive thru instead of our grill.

You can have your burger and eat it too haha!

Bison is super lean, the suggested serving size is 4 ounces which grilled yields 190 calories.

I seasoned both sides of the 4 oz patties with black pepper, red pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and dried onions. You can also use McCormick's Montreal Steak seasoning (it's gluten free and sugar free).

Grill as usual I grill ours medium well (we're not pink meat people lol)

While your meat is resting off the grill wash your iceberg lettuce leaves and arrange, your toppings.

Our toppings:
Trader Joes low fat mayo (sugar free) 15 calories (1/2 tbs)
Mustard (0 calories)
Dill pickles (0 calories)
Cherry tomatoes (10 calories)
Iceberg lettuce (1 calorie)

Total burger was 216 calories and finger licking delicious!

P.s. Karl topped his burger with some salsa instead of tomatoes/pickles and raw red onions for some extra spice/sweetness. He had raving reviews.
